A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Storage Working Group of the IETF.
Title : iSNS Internet Storage Name Service
Author(s) : K. Gibbons et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-ips-isns-03.txt
Pages : 73
Date : 31-May-01
This document provides a generic framework centering around use of
the iSNS for discovery and management of iSCSI and Fibre Channel
(FCP) storage devices in an enterprise-scale IP storage network.
iSNS is an application that stores iSCSI and FC device attributes
and monitors their availability and reachability in an integrated IP
storage network. Due to its role as a consolidated information
repository, iSNS provides for more efficient and scalable management
of storage devices in an IP network.

In the body type:

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
